Play-Asia Trance Vibrator stash

3? Are you going to use a USB hub and invite over the triplets?

[maxlords]

One for me and one for a friend that asked me to get him one. The third was an accident...somehow managed to put 2 instead of one on on of the orders. I just hope I get them!

Finally got around to trying Rez with the Aura Interactor. Actually I tried it a few weeks ago, but the dirty old Interactor I was given didn't inspire much confidence, and I didn't think it worked quite right. Picked up a new one yesterday for a few bucks and just gave it a shot with better results. First off, ignore the manual and turn the filter way down, to 3 or so. This way it only picks up the deeper tones - on the recommended setting you hear everything through the Interactor, largely drowing out your other, better sound source. Put the Interactor on your back and lean back into your chair, hopefully a nice cushy one to muffle as much sound as possible. The result is a pretty good thump. I suppose it does improve the experience a bit, but it doesn't do a whole lot more than my big subwoofer already did when turned up loud enough to annoy the neighbors. The biggest problem is that the quality of the sound from the Interactor is so bad that any bit of noise from it taints the audio experience of the game. Maybe with some tinkering it will be better.

The most interesting thing about the Interactor is the amount of heat generated by the base unit. After only playing the first level of the game, the unit was uncomfortably hot. Thankfully the wire from the base unit to the backpack is quite long, so you should be able to place the base unit somewhere safe.

OK. The TV arrived today. My curiosity is satisfied--the PS2 (with Rez) does support two simultaneously plugged-in Trance Vibrators. Each appears to be fully powered in this configuration, although I didn't have any reason to believe that they wouldn't be.

This bothers me. I have yet to have heard from Play-asia about mine...and they still say backordered

[bargora]

Maybe you should drop them a note?

Me don't know. Me just monkey.

I just noticed this thread... Any updates? I wanted to pick up one of these...

Still no word. They said one of my two was on the way. Nothing since. So irritating.

That's disheartening....

If you do happen to get all three, you know where you can unload the spare!

[maxlords]

I got one today, with some tissues and candy ;D Waiting for the other..... *sigh*

[devilman]

Apparently mines on the way Er.. I guess I'd buy the game from somewhere now.

damn.... I bought the Trance vibrator after coming to Tokyo this summer. I already had the US version of the game but I didnt have the vibrator for my girl. Anyway, the store had tons of the stand alone trance vibrators brand new marked down to around $5 per.

Just checked. Play-Asia apparently has the Trance Vibrator in stock again, now for $24.90 + S&H.

now here's a thought.
get a dozen and strap them all over your girl's body and hook them into a single wire...

hit play with Rez and see what happen...

Can anyone tell me why the Trance Vibrator is shaped the way it is (I'm thinking actual links to developer ideas/etc.)? I have one, and it's honestly not properly shaped to effectively use in a sexual manner (for women or men), and it's not particularly well shaped for the gaming experience. Good idea, relatively poor design. IMO, force-feedback headphones are far more impressive and immersive to use in conjunction with Rez.

Good question. And while I don't have any answers to your questions, I am now wondering about the feasibility of transferring the guts of the TV into a "John Holmes Ram-Master".
